The Story

This is a stunning, one of a kind Mia Solano gown from the 2017 collection. This is an extremely flattering style with a see through bodice and tulle, floaty skirt. The dress features a plunging neckline with sheer mesh and the top, with a V back and floating buttons. The lace is beaded and delicate and is simply stunning! This is the perfect dress for those who like volume but don't like the puffy princess dress style and for those who like modern dress styles.

The dress comes with 4 lace appliques which originally cost $200 on top of the original purchase. These can be used to wear in your hair (as I did), or to make garters or anything you like.

I received so many compliments on this dress with guests saying it was the nicest dress they'd ever seen. Pictures truly do not do it justice (sadly I don't have any really good shots of it). You will not be disappointed with this one of a kind, incredible gown.

Alterations

I changed the original white bust cups to a nude colour to accentuate the see through bodice. The bodice was taken in, darts put in to give more of a bust and shape as I am small in this area and the shoulders were brought up. All of these alterations can be undone to look like the model in the picture. This really does need to be tried on to see it's beauty. I removed a tulle petticoat as I didn't want as much body, but this will come with the dress and can be added back if desired.
